/usr is an invisible folder on your startup disk local is inside usr, so it'll be listed as /usr/local If you want to see the folders, try getting a copy of tinkertool at http://www.bresink.de/osx/TinkerTool2.html and set it to let you see the hidden folders or open up Terminal (ugh) and type cd / (this takes you to the 'top' of the startup drive directory, like double-clicking on a disk icon used to) and then type ls -la you'll see all the gory unix folders which are kept hidden from view.
